His chamber music is actually pretty good unlike the rest of his music

I haven't been listening to classical music long but I really like Beethoven, especially his 6th symphony and the Große Fuge. Does anyone have any good symphonies or string quartets and quintets? They don't necessarily have to be in the same vein as the ones I mentioned. Please wax poetic about it if you wish. I'm just having trouble getting out of my Beethoven bubble since there's so much classical music.

It's still one of my favourite trios but I'm not as overwhelmingly obsessed with it as I used to be.

Symphonies: try Brahms 3, Dvorak 8-9, Mendelssohn "Italian", Schubert 8-9, Mahler 5
Quarters: try Borodin 2, smetana 1, Dvorak 10-14, Hayden's opus 76 quartets, Mendelssohn 6, Tchaikovsky 1, Debussy and ravel quartets (God tier) Schubert 13-15 if you haven't already....Bartok and Shostakovich as well

Outside of string quartets you should try some quintets. Brahm's string quintets are outstanding. His piano quintet and clarinet quintet are both towering masterpieces

The list goes on...

The difficulty comes from that music theory is based around pieces. The rules of learning counterpoint in any conservatory is derived from the school of Fux, which again is derived on what Bach did. The practise of using these tools onto your own pieces and using them relatively is the difficulty.
Its not that hard to make clones or "sound-alikes" of, i.e say baroque music if you know that the rules they used at the time, and stay in diatonic chords.

When mastering these fields, you're breaking the rules you've learnt and make your own. And if you become an acclaimed composer, then people will write books on how you wrote.

Any double bass players here? I want to switch after years of electric bass because I like the smooth, wooden sound of it, especially when played arco. Unfortunately, I'm to poor to afford a teacher. Does anyone have some good recommendations regarding books for beginners? Also, where did you get your basses? I'd like to get a used one where the wood has already done some work.
Any help is appreciated, thanks in advance!

Proves once again that the electric guitar is an inferior "instrument"

What's an instrument that would take someone the least amount of time to play well?

>>70679063
steve vai is just so wanky. if you're going to put an electric guitar in with an orchestra you shouldn't have that much gain and start with a pick scrape. some parts of it actually sound good later on, but that start ruins anything that could've been good about it

>>70679208
triangle

>>70679208
piano probably. its the easiest to sight read from and things like chords make a lot of sense visually, so its probably also a good instrument for learning theory. the only instruments i've played are piano drums and guitar tho

>>70679335
a fake one is good enough

>>70679335
get a midi controller and download reaper. i'd recommend more than just 2 octaves on the controller tho. i bought a 2 octave one and its kind of limiting, and i'm not even really playing actual piano songs, just doing my own stuff

>>70679264
>the easiest to sight read from
How so ?
>chords make a lot of sense visually
What ?

>>70679370
>How so ?
the notes on the staff are the white spaces on the piano
>What ?
if you want to play a C major triad - which is composed of the 1st, 3rd, and 5th of the C major scale, you start counting from C and play the 1st, 3rd, and 5th white keys

if you dont think any of this stuff sounds particularly straightforward, you should definitely not play guitar. because guitar is about ten thousand times more complicated

>>70679264
Maybe the easiest to play casually, but extremely difficult to get good at. Guitar is easier imo

>>70679462
Just asking out of interest. For how long have you been playing piano ?

>>70679604
Not that anon, but, yeah, the difficulty is relative to the goal one intends to accomplish.

>>70679604
have you ever played classical or jazz guitar? it's the opposite of what you're saying. guitar is easy to play casually, but extremely difficult to get good at. piano may be a bit harder to play casually, but it's a lot easier to play harmonies and melodies at the same time
>>70679641
basically this. if you're just playing wonderwall then it doesn't matter, but if you're doing anything of worth then you have to learn how to use 6 piano keyboards laid alongside one another, where 4 of the intervals are a perfect 4th apart and the other is a major 3rd because fuck you
>>70679638
i played piano from when i was like 8 to when i was 14 or so

Who's the greatest page turner of all time?

>>70679897
Memory.

What are some good 'heavy sounding" composers? I can only think of Stravinsky and Bruckner right now.

>>70672805
After the operas of Rameau, Pelleas is probably the finest in the genre my man

>>70680035

>>70680330
Late Bethooven also comes to my mind.

Are there any Beethovens other than the famous one whose last name you can post alongside a youtube video of their music and everyone will think it's the famous Beethoven but actually they got punk'd and it's someone other guy. I know Mozart has one with his daddy

Wrong answer, Steve.

>>70679727
I've played guitar (tho not classical) and currently play piano. While the piano is a much more capable instrument, there is a lot more going on and you have to keep track of a lot more things. It isn't too difficult to learn the first movement of the moonlight sonata and impress ppl who aren't classically trained, but to get any where near good, expect at least a couple years playing 2+ hrs a day while taking lessons. Playing any classical instrument is going to be difficult, so asking which one is the easiest is already the wrong attitude. That's why I suggested guitar. Get your feet wet playing easy popular songs and then if you're still motivated you can move up to classical.

>>70683480
Yeah? and you've only played piano when you where in middle school. Also actually read my post. Going into playing piano with the attitude of "I'm gonna be good at this ASAP" is going to end up in a disaster.
